I would like to be able to set the color on a vehicle (car), so with "vehicle" as a LuaEntity: vehicle.color = {r=255, g=0, b=0, a=1}
I would like this color to persist until something else changes it, such as a player entering or leaving a vehicle.
If a player is in a vehicle and the color is changed it should override the currently displayed color.

Vehicles don't have a color property that they save which means there's no property to modify through the API. They simply render with the color of the current player in them.

Ok, in that case are there any entity types that have more than 16 possible directions, are not locked to rails, and do support the color property?
